If you have a mom, you know that Mother's Day brunch is probably a thing.

I'm not quite sure why, it's a thing but it is. Maybe it's because mom's would like to sleep in on Mother's Day and not have to get up so early and eat breakfast.

Maybe brunch is a thing because eating between breakfast and lunch would remove a full meal thus making one less thing the dad or kid needs to be counted on for.

Nevertheless, while the whole Mother's Day brunch remains a mystery to me, things are much more clear when trying to figure out the best Mom's Day brunch restaurants.

That said, I consulted the wonderful folks at Yelp in order to figure out the 7 best.
